    OrganizedChaos replied to BSNbeauty's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Yikes! I'm glad you're ok though. I've never had anyone attack me & I've worked in corrections. I hope you can get things sorted out between your nurse manager & supervisor between what to do...

    OrganizedChaos replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in General Nursing

    I'm sure if I volunteered at the hospital & dropped a few hints here & there I might end up with something. The hospital is TINY! Meg/Surg, ICU, ER, OR & LDRP. Two

    Well like my husband said when I put myself out there I should expect the negative as well as the positive. But why should I care what the negative people think? :) Thank you so much. If the negative...

    Brace yourselves

    OrganizedChaos replied to ixchel's topic in General Students

    I didn't know about the PVT when I took the NCLEX & I lived. I also think anyone who spends $200 on the PVT is crazy. If they have $200 to blow I am willing to take that money & give them a...

    Can't get into school because of statistics :(

    OrganizedChaos replied to haedis's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Don't give up. I know there are a bunch of ADN programs that don't require stats. I'm not great at math but I made it through med dosage. I never had a proper math teacher in high school, they were...

    Yeah that post is old. I have an A in A&P 2, B in A&P 1 & Chem & C in micro. I don't think those grades are competitive or "good". Yeah what does the second post have to do anything,...

    But with gas prices rising, that's an added cost. Sometimes you have to make a list of pros & cons. Is it worth it to get a job an hour or more away? Is it worth it to add the cost of gas &...

    OrganizedChaos replied to GabesMommy2014's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I wouldn't say anything, you just have the interview. If you get the job at your 'dream' hospital, then say something. But not in the interview. That might ruin your chance all
